We represent individuals in dissolution of marriage proceedings, legal separations, proceedings to modify existing decrees, proceedings to enforce existing decrees, proceedings to collect child and spousal support, and in certain paternity actions. We also handle appeals of family law cases.
We represent individual clients in the city and county of St. Louis, Missouri. Our practice is limited exclusively to divorce law, concentrating on complex cases involving substantial assets, business interests, professional practices, contested child custody issues, and appellate practice.
The firm consists of eight attorneys representing over one hundred and thirty years of cumulative experience in these matters. We make every reasonable effort to negotiate satisfactory settlements in these difficult cases. When settlement proves impossible, we are prepared to try the case in court. We are aided in our efforts by experienced legal assistants, and other attentive support staff.

Zerman Featured in Super Lawyers Magazine Profile
Allan H. Zerman of the firm was prominently featured in an article published this fall by Missouri/Kansas Super Lawyers, a publication of Law and Politics Magazine. The article focuses upon Zerman’s role as the personal attorney for St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Curt Flood during the time of his famous legal challenge to major league baseball’s standard contractual "reserve clause," a challenge which went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court and is reported as Flood v. Kuhn, 407 US 258 (1972). According to the article, in 1972 Zerman was just 35 years of age: "I don't know if I fully appreciated the magnitude of [the case] at the time," said Zerman in the article, the entirety of which may be viewed here.

Joseph J. Kodner Designated a "Super Lawyers Rising Star"
Joseph J. Kodner of the firm has been designated a "Rising Star" by Missouri and Kansas Super Lawyers, a publication of Law and Politics Magazine. With his designation as a Super Lawyer "Rising Star," Mr. Kodner has been recognized by his peers as being among Missouri’s top up and coming attorneys. According to the publication, Missouri lawyers are instructed to nominate lawyers they have personally observed in action — whether as opposing counsel or co-counsel, or through other firsthand courtroom observation; the nominated attorneys must be age 40 or under, or practicing for 10 years or less. The nominated lawyers are ranked by point totals and those with the highest point totals are named to the "Rising Stars" list. Only 2.5 percent of the lawyers in the state can be named to the list. www.superlawyers.com
